We all know he's only TDing for +1s
I love +1s as much as the next slimy admin, but that would so not be worth it.

Thanks, ghug.

So entering Trieste from Tyrolia in 1901 is allowed? Awesome. I look forward to playing mun-tyr-tri.

I'm guessing this is a joke but idk? As italy, key lepanto opening seems workable enough (punishing an Austria who gets aggressive with his fleet but still making it clear you can potentially work with him), what's wrong with that?

Good luck convincing Austria you're going to Key Lepanto in Gunboat.

I imagine Austria won't have much choice in the matter.

No moves are actually banned, but I may post a list of everyone who hedgehogged at the end for public shaming.

I'm a new player asks I a few questions.
What is a reliability rating and what is a NMR?

Reliability rating shows how many moves a player skipped during games.
NMR is 1 skipped move.

I thought "reliability rating" refers to how NICE someone is. How likely to look after your dog and remember to feed it, how likely to follow through on paying back that $25 for espresso last thursday, or how likely to vote consistently in upcoming elections...

OR Nikola is correct.
(Which maybe should raise HIS reliability rating?)

We've reached 100 signups. This is well on track to being webDip's biggest tournament ever.

The first 1v1 showdown by number of people. Constricted to real diplomacy, it's probably the Century League running now (though I don't know if I'd call that real diplomacy).

Prizes have been doubled, and a point award for solos has been added! The rewards will increase again if we hit 150 players.
